The border gateways provide the network control boundary that is necessary for traffic enforcement and failure containment functionality. In the control plane, BGP sessions between the border gateways rewrite the next hop information of EVPN routes and re-originate them. VXLAN Tunnel Endpoints (VTEPs) are only aware of their overlay domain internal neighbors including the border gateways. All routes external to the fabric have a next hop on the border gateways for Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic. The VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site feature is a solution to interconnect two or more BGP-based Ethernet VPN (EVPN) site's fabrics in a scalable fashion over an IP-only network. The Border Gateway (BG) is the node that interacts with nodes within a site and with nodes that are external to the site. For example, in a leaf-spine data center fabric, it can be a leaf, a spine, or a separate device acting as a gateway to interconnect the sites. The VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site feature can be conceptualized as multiple site-local EVPN control planes and IP forwarding domains interconnected via a single common EVPN control and IP forwarding domain. Every EVPN node is identified with a unique site-scope identifier. A site-local EVPN domain consists of EVPN nodes with the same site identifier. Border Gateways on one hand are also part of site-specific EVPN domain and on the other hand a part of a common EVPN domain to interconnect with Border Gateways from other 1

2 Guidelines and Limitations for VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site sites. For a given site, these Border Gateways facilitate site-specific nodes to visualize all other sites to be reachable only via them. This would mean: Site-local bridging domains are interconnected only via Border Gateways with bridging domains from other sites. Site-local routing domains are interconnected only via Border Gateways with routing domains from other sites. Site-local flood domains are interconnected only via Border Gateways with flood domains from other sites. Selective Advertisement is defined as the configuration of the per-tenant information on the border gateway. Specifically, this means IP-VRF or MAC-VRF (EVPN Instance). In cases where External Connectivity (VRF-lite) and EVPN Multi-Site co-exist on the same border gateway, the advertisements are always enabled. Guidelines and Limitations for VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site has the following configuration guidelines and limitations: Beginning with Cisco NX-OS Release 7.0(3)I7(1), support for VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site functionality on Cisco Nexus 9300-EX and 9300-FX platform switches is added. The number of border leafs is restricted to four. Border leafs in a vpc topology are not supported. Support for Multicast Flood Domain between inter-site/fabric border gateways is not supported. ibgp EVPN Peering between border gateways across inter-site/fabric cloud is not supported. Enabling VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site This procedure enables the VXLAN EVPN Multi-Site feature. Multi-Site is enabled on the border leafs only. The site-id must be the same on all border leafs in the fabric. evpn multisite border-gateway ms-id switch(config)# evpn multisite border-gateway 100 Configure the site ID for a site/fabric. The range of values for ms-id is 1 to 2,814,749,767,110,655. The ms-id must be the same in all border leafs within the same fabric. 2

3 Configuring VNI Dual Mode interface nve x switch(config-evpn-msite-bgw)# interface nve 1 source-interface loopback src-if switch(config-if-nve)# source-interface loopback 0 Creates a VXLAN overlay interface that terminates VXLAN tunnels. The range of x is from 1 to 281,474,976,710,655. Only 1 NVE interface is allowed on the switch The source interface must be a loopback interface that is configured on the switch with a valid /32 IP address. This /32 IP address must be known by the transient devices in the transport network and the remote VTEPs. This is accomplished by advertising it through a dynamic routing protocol in the transport network. host-reachability protocol bgp switch(config-if-nve)# host-reachability protocol bgp multisite border-gateway interface loopback vi-num switch(config-if-nve)# multisite border-gateway interface loopback 100 Defines BGP as the mechanism for host reachability advertisement. Defines the loopback interface used for the border gateway virtual IP address (VIP). The border-gateway interface must be a loopback interface that is configured on the switch with a valid /32 IP address. This /32 IP address must be known by the transient devices in the transport network and the remote VTEPs. This is accomplished by advertising it through a dynamic routing protocol in the transport network. This loopback must be different than the source interface loopback. The range of vi-num is from 0 to Step 7 no shutdown Negate shutdown command. switch(config-if-nve)# no shutdown Configuring VNI Dual Mode This procedure describes the configuration of BUM traffic domain for a given VLAN. Support exists for flooding via multicast or ingress replication inside the fabric/site and Ingress replication across different fabrics/sites. 3

4 Configuring Fabric/DCI Link Tracking interface nve x switch(config)# interface nve 1 member vni vni-range switch(config-if-nve)# member vni 200 mcast-group ip-addr switch(config-if-nve-vni)# mcast-group ingress-replication protocol bgp switch(config-if-nve-vni)# ingress-replication protocol bgp multisite ingress-replication switch(config-if-nve-vni)# multisite ingress-replication Creates a VXLAN overlay interface that terminates VXLAN tunnels. Only 1 NVE interface is allowed on the switch. Configure the virtual network identifier (VNI). The range for vni-range is from 1 to 16,777,214. The value of vni-range can be a single value like 5000 or a range like Enter one of the or commands. Configure the NVE Multicast group IP prefix within the fabric. Enables BGP EVPN with ingress replication for the VNI within the fabric. Defines the Multi-Site BUM replication method. Per-VNI knob for extending Layer 2 VNI. Configuring Fabric/DCI Link Tracking This procedure describes the configuration to track all DCI facing interfaces and fabric facing interfaces. Tracking is mandatory and is used to disable re-origination of EVPN routes either from or to a site if all the DCI/fabric links go down. 4

5 Configuring Fabric External Neighbors interface ethernet port switch(config)# interface ethernet1/1 evpn multisite dci-tracking Etners interface configuration mode for DCI interface. Enter one of the following commands in or. Configure DCI interface tracking. switch(config-if)# evpn multisite dci-tracking interface ethernet port switch(config)# interface ethernet1/2 evpn multisite fabric-tracking switch(config-if)# evpn multisite fabric-tracking ip address ip-addr Enters interface configuration mode for fabric interface. Enters interface configuration mode for fabric interface. Configure IP features. Step 7 switch(config-if)# ip address no shutdown Negate shutdown command. switch(config-if)# no shutdown Configuring Fabric External Neighbors This procedure describes the configuration of Fabric External/DCI Neighbors for communication to other site/fabric border leafs. 5

6 Configuring Fabric External Neighbors router bgp as-num switch(config)# router bgp 100 neighbor ip-addr Configure the autonomous system number. The range for as-num is from 1 to 4,294,967,295. Configure a BGP neighbor. switch(config-router)# neighbor peer-type fabric-external switch(config-router-neighbor)# peer-type fabric-external address-family l2vpn evpn Enables the next hop rewrite for multi-site. Defines site external BGP neighbors for EVPN exchange. The default for peer-type is fabric-internal. switch(config-router-neighbor)# address-family l2vpn evpn rewrite-evpn-rt-asn switch(config-router-neighbor)# rewrite-evpn-rt-asn Rewrites the route target information to simplify MAC-VRF and IP-VRF configuration. Normalizes the outgoing route target's AS number to match the remote AS number. Uses the BGP configured neighbors remote AS. The rewrite-evpn-rt-asn command is required if the route target auto feature is being used to configure EVPN route targets. 6
